Abstract:

The architecture of Israel is not only a mirror which reflects the image of its society; it is also a matrix which forms this society. The architecture and spatial planning were the mainstays of the Zionist project. The Jewish settlers used them to create a policy of fait accompli: they were annexing lands, transforming the landscape, defining a distinct national identity, defining themselves as different from the local inhabitants, the Arabs. In the process of the construction of the new, national architectural form, tensions between the supporters of the Semitic-Oriental tradition and the members of the Euro-Modernist school is evident, and an intriguing paradox is exposed: the more deeply Israeli architecture is searching for its roots in the biblical Eretz Israel, the closer to the local Arab tradition it is getting
